summary
Panelists describe live experiments: a mobile platform with half a million monthly users already linking game tokens and selective NFTs; a film crowdfund that issues NFTs as rewards and sells; onboarding friction measured as 42 onboarding steps to get a wallet; a Terra-backed title with a 400‑page lore where meteor‑drop dust NFTs evolve into dragons and unlock play progression; proof‑of‑ownership used as key‑card access NFTs for exclusive content and cross‑game utility, with real deployment but clear UX and ethical problems to solve.
